Critical Mass - (Lantern Beach Blackout: Detonation) by Christy Barritt (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

She thought she knew the man she was falling for. She was wrong.

Natalie Ravenscroft believed she'd found her perfect match in Timothy Shaw-charming, loyal, everything she ever wanted. But when her father starts asking questions she can't answer, Natalie follows her instincts . . . and her boyfriend. What she uncovers shatters her world. Timothy Shaw isn't real.

Hudson Roberts never meant to fall for his target's daughter. As a covert operative for Blackout, he's built his life on secrets-and falling for Natalie was never part of the mission. But now his cover is blown, his investigation compromised, and the woman he loves sees him as the enemy.

When a terrorist plot reaches critical mass, Hudson and Natalie are thrust into a deadly race against time. Every second counts. Every truth hurts. And amid the chaos, one battle matters most-the fight to rebuild trust. Because if they can't, they'll lose more than the mission . . . they'll lose each other.
